"Childe Hassam: An Island Garden Revisited" by David Park Curry

From the late 1880s to around 1915, Childe Hassam, America's foremost impressionist, frequently visited the Isles of Shoals, the site of a summer resort popular with many American artists and writers.

Paintings from Hassam's Isles of Shoals series are among the most familiar icons of late nineteenth-century American art.

But until now, a comprehensive selection of these beautiful works had not been collected in one place.

David Park Curry's informative text provides the background essential to a full appreciation of these works.

105 full-color reproductions and 100 black-and-white photographs.
